Olivo, 35, who has played in the majors for parts of 13 seasons, was on the team's 40-man roster, which now stands at 39.

Olivo was suspended shortly after the incident.

It was not Olivo's first brush with controversy. He was placed on the restricted list in 2013 after he walked out on the Miami Marlins in June, demanding a release from the club after he became upset about his lack of playing time.

After signing with the Dodgers this past offseason, he said "would like to be a boxer like Mike Tyson but without biting an ear," if he weren't a baseball player in an interview with Telemundo.
